“Liverpool has a rich heritage of enterprise and innovation, which continues to be fostered by the presence and output of the many Universities in the region.  The Department of Computer Science at the University of Liverpool has been at the forefront of research into AI and the law for decades, even before lawtech was a ‘thing’. Research and collaboration with academia has never been more important as we grapple with some of the philosophical, sociological, legal and technical aspects of lawtech and in Liverpool we have this expertise on our doorstep.”  Says Catriona Wolfenden, Product & Innovation Director, Weightmans.

This event is a unique chance to delve into the latest trends, challenges, and opportunities in the lawtech ecosystem. Participants will gain insights from the government's dedicated efforts to bolster lawtech, as well as LawtechUK's  strategy and its significant contributions to legal technology.
